Add a barrel, and you are done!!!
No official Ranges: WHY?I don't own a spring that is 11" long, but I was able to test it with a bungees and It actually hit 50ft. But I also tested by turning the gun into a pushpull gun, and it achieved 80ft. So if I am able to find a spring to fit the gun, this could bet hitting insane ranges
Final lookback:Pro:
- Cheap
- Compact forward length
- It's Canadian Pine
- It vaccum-loads
Cons:
- Spring length is rare
- I got a splinter
